The First Psalm

Beatus vir qui non abiit.


BLESSED is the man that hath not walked in the counsel of the ungodly, nor stood in the way of sinners, * and hath not sat in the seat of the scornful.
 
But his delight is in the law of the LORD; * and in his law will he exercise himself day and night.
 
And he shall be like a tree planted by the water-side, * that will bring forth his fruit in due season.
 
His leaf also shall not wither; * and look, whatsoever he doeth, it shall prosper.
 
As for the ungodly, it is not so with them; * but they are like the chaff, which the wind scattereth away from the face of the earth.
 
Therefore the ungodly shall not be able to stand in the judgment, * neither the sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
 
But the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous; * and the way of the ungodly shall perish.
